The Computer Science Department at the University of Texas at
Dallas will conduct a ten-week summer research program funded
by the National Science Foundation (NSF) for ten undergraduates
from May 20 to July 28, 2022.

The focus is on "software safety and Reliability," however,
the technology and skills learned by the students have
general applicability to research and practice in their
future studies.

We provide a close collaboration with our industry partners.

In addition to work on assigned research projects at UTD,
special seminars by industry advisors will be arranged to help 
the students better understand how software safety and
reliability is adopted in practice for real-life applications.

This also gives students a chance to directly communicate
with practitioners to receive a first-hand account of the
work environments and lifestyles in the industry.

We also host special workshops on technical writing and oral
presentation to improve students' proficiency in preparing
and delivering technical reports.

Videos (along with PowerPoint slide shows) for students'
project presentations as well as lectures on software safety,
reliability, and technical writing are also posted:

highlights some activities of our program.

Eligible applicants are those who have an interest in pursuing
a graduate education, are currently enrolled in an accredited
undergraduate institution, and are U.S. citizens or permanent
residents.

Incoming seniors will be given preference, but sophomores and
juniors with strong academic records will also be considered.

Special welcome is extended to students from underrepresented
groups (women, minorities, and persons with disabilities) and
academic institutions with limited research opportunities.

Selected participants will receive a scholarship ($6,000 USD) to
conduct research with a faculty member in the Computer Science
Department at UTD.
